You need some more sections:

Taken from my nvidia desktop's xorg.conf, you need to add:

Section "Module"
         Load  "freetype"
         Load  "type1"
         Load  "vbe"
         Load  "glx"
         Load  "dbe"
         Load  "extmod"
EndSection

Section "ServerFlags"
         Option      "AIGLX" "OFF"
EndSection
